our mother weeps

our mother weeps

we live

here

yet we

are so arrogant and we begin to question our resolve in our day to day decisions

meanwhile our mother weeps

because we have begun to kill her

she weeps

because she raised us from a single seed

and we beat her

when she has been so kind,yet we turn around and scar her forever

she weeps

and we smile oblivious to her pain

and she weeps

Tim!  Excellent write!  I so agree…we have been disrespectful and uncommonly cruel.  "Her" pain is deep and debilitating.  Yes…she weeps for what has been eternally lost.
